Applications of Calculus I Class Spring 09

Objectives

The goal of the EXCEL program is to enhance understanding of mathematics (primarily calculus) for Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) students.
Mathematics is considered the cornerstone of the success of any student pursuing a degree in a STEM discipline. One way of achieving this goal at UCF is by introducing students to the
Application of Calculus courses. The presentations that the individual EXCEL faculty members will make in the Applications of Calculus class will show you how material that you will be
learning in your Calculus I class is actually used in the discipline of the faculty presenter. These presentations are correlated with sections of your calculus book and will be presented
just shortly after you cover these sections in your Calculus I class.
